  1. Re:Fallout on Sequels We'd All Like To See · · Score: 2, Funny

    Yes, coolest ending for a game ever.

    Those ungrateful Vault 13 bastards...

  2. Re:No bullfrog games? No X-com? Crappy list. on Sequels We'd All Like To See · · Score: 1

    Try Silent Storm, its very similar to X-COM, except it's set in WW2, with lasers, and mechs.

  3. Re:Worse Problem on US Outlaws Online Gambling · · Score: 3, Funny

    Anyone want to bet that online casinos will be targeted by this law, but Wall Street will remain strangely exempt?

    Didn't you read the article? Betting online is illegal...

  4. Re:Absolutely correct... on Is the Do Not Call System Working? · · Score: 1

    Telemarketers are evil, they usually kick their puppies themselves.

  5. So they fixed the bug in the Matrix... on Deja Vu Recreated in a Lab Setting · · Score: 1

    ... how will we know when the Agents change something???

  6. Re:Doom on Being Scared in Games is Needed · · Score: 1

    Well there are 2 kinds of scares as I see it cheap scares and creepy scares.

    Cheap: Doom 3 or any movie where a cat jumps on the hood or the car. These ones work on surprising you, Doom 3, works until you figure out how it works. Half way through it it didn't scare me as much.

    Creepy: F.E.A.R., Silent Hill, or for movies The Ring, Exorcist, Omen, etc. I personally like these better, I guess they use anxiety instead of surprise. In F.E.A.R. when you enter the hallway where the door closes (you know the one), it really scared the hell out of me. I knew it was coming the moment I entered it but it scared me anyway.

  7. Re:Doom on Being Scared in Games is Needed · · Score: 1

    Doom 3 was scary for the first few levels, afterwards you knew that when you enter a room the first thing you do is look behind you cause a hidden door opened and there's a bad guy there. I found F.E.A.R. scarier from beginning to end, the hallucinations were awesome, or when youre in the elevator and the creepy girl is suddenly there... cool...

  8. Most of those sucked, but.. on Futurama Returns · · Score: 1

    Wonder Falls, Andy Richter controls the universe and Keen Eddy were great.

    The Pitts was the worst thing I have ever seen...

  9. Re:WoW on Gamers Itching To Switch To Macs? · · Score: 1

    Well, I'm running on a AMD 64 3500, 1GB RAM, GeForce 6800GT with everything maxed and it works perfectly. I have noticed in the Bethesda forums that some kickass machines (like yours) have problems when others not as good (like mine) work perfectly. Weird.

  10. Re:Will Fry and Leela finally get together? on Futurama Returns · · Score: 1

    I don't know but the one about Fry's dog is the saddest and most depressing cartoon I have ever seen.

  11. No problem... on Zombie MMORPG in the Works · · Score: 1

    ...let zombies only talk to each other, the living will only hear moaning and "brains" every once in a while. :)

  12. Best ending... on Classic Game Endings Online · · Score: 1

    ...anywhere (computer or console) is Fallout 1.

  13. Re:Again? on Open Letter To Star Wars Players · · Score: 1, Funny

    This post is too long and hard to read. BTW what is RTFM?

  14. Re:Or.... on Wealthy 'Cryonauts' Put Assets on Ice · · Score: 1

    ...he could wake up to realize he could buy the last can of anchovies.

  15. Re:Cliffhanger on Sci-Fi Channel to Pick Up John Doe · · Score: 1

    What about the cliffhanger for Space: Above and Beyond?? I hate FOX.

  16. Re:Appropriate Family Guy Quote on Groening Confident on Futurama Relaunch · · Score: 1

    Of those shows the good ones were Wonder Falls, Firefly, Keen Eddy. If you like good but stupid Andy Richter Controls The Universe, The Tick. Yes, The Pitts sucked, as much as The 80s show.

  17. Remember, remember the fifth of November... on French Riots Lead to Crackdown on Blogs · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Maybe this riots are a promotion for the release of V for Vendetta

  18. If F.E.A.R. wasn't scary enough... on Philips amBX: For Ambient Gaming · · Score: 1

    ...now the lights in my room will flash too? As long as that creepy girl doesn't show up...

  19. So... on Hydrogen Fuel Cells Hit the Road · · Score: 2, Funny

    ... you live in Canada?

  20. My office has a ghost... on Is Your Office Haunted? · · Score: 1

    I call it "The Restore Ghost". It restores old bugs I know i fixed. When I check the source code I know exactly where the problem is because I already fixed it. No, is not Deja-Vu, I clearly remember I fixed it.

  21. Re:Perpetuum mobile or what? on The Car That Makes Its Own Fuel · · Score: 4, Informative

    The photo of the car on the web site suggests this technology is ready to go. IMHO it has a LONG way to go.

    That car is actually a Ford concept car it is the Shelby GR-1.

  22. I've seen the demo... on Echostar 'PocketDish' to Playback Video from DVR · · Score: 2, Informative

    They showed it in one of those chats that Dish Network's CEO gives every once in a while. You can get more info here. The interesting thing is that the satellite receiver is the one that sends the video, you don't download it. As soon as you connect the cable it will recognize that there is a PocketDish at the other side (at least that's how it looked to me). I'm sure someone will make a PocketDish emulator for PCs soon. :)

  23. Not really... on Broadcast Flag Back in Congress · · Score: 2, Informative

    You could send them a Fecalgram. Why won't they ship worldwide? Read their testimonials. :)

  24. Re:Good Investment on Marvel Gets Cash to do 10 Films · · Score: 1

    I don't know, a Captain America movie in WWII would be cool.

  25. I for one... on Bacteria Used to Create Nanowires · · Score: 0

    ..welcome our nano-wire excreting bacteria overlords.
